Catching the last light

I’ll be ending this gallery with this last gate, another very unusual style that I never saw anywhere else.

Thanks so much for all the interest in this gallery, which I have really enjoyed working on – a reminder of a perfect last day in Saudi Arabia photographing some of the things that interested me the most during our time there. I still have some Riyadh pictures to process, which I’ll post when I have nothing else to do from Washington (probably frequently the way things are going these days ;-)).

Complementary, posted earlier:

Nikon D810 ,Nikkor AF-S 24-70mm f/2.8G ED
1/200s f/5.6 at 55.0mm iso100 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

PS Ditto Buz's comment re your Saudi galleries - they've been an eye opener
